* Ether PDXL - Version A2B
Figured out why the model was half the size after saving thanks to foxmlg!
My AUTO1111 was using SDXL LORAs at fp8 which resulted in the model also being saved at that precision. I disabled that setting, then re-tuned the weights to have a similar but (imo) nicer overall aesthetic.
Seems to be more consistent, stable and less 'fried' than A2 (?). Not entirely sure though as I wanted to push this release as a 'quick fix'. Please let me know about your experience with version A2B!
Thank you all so much for trying out my models.
Still in its early stages. I'm trying to understand SDXL merging as well as navigate resources that align with my goals.
VAE is baked in. It's XL VAE C9.1 as it's more vibrant than standard SDXL which better fits the aesthetic I'm looking for.
Looking forward to your feedback!
Please refer to Pony V6 and PD for Anime's model pages for more detailed prompting guidelines.
☄️ Generation Recommendations
* All preview images were generated with no LORA's, embeddings, extensions or img to img/inpainting. Just pure text to image with hi-res fix upscaling.
Most sample images were generated with:
Sampler: Eular A
Schedule Type: SGM Uniform
Steps: 28 - 38
CFG: 4 - 9
Clip Skip: 2
ENSD: 31337
Negative Prompt Example:
"score_4, score_5, score_6, source_pony, source_furry, fewer digits, extra digits, polydactyly"
I recommend this negative prompt if you wish to achieve a similar style to the preview images. You can further alter positive and negative prompts based on the type of style you'd like to achieve.
Sample images were further upscaled using Hi-res fix. Please utilize it if you wish to achieve similar results.
Latent (nearest-exact)

📘 Model Merging Info - vA2B
I have no training or real knowledge of machine learning. I merged the model using the information provided on WarriorMama777's AOM model page as well as the ones in these Rentrys. I very arbitrarily mixed the UBM weights of each model, modifying the values with trial and error until I was visually satisfied with it.
I utilized the SuperMerger extension for AUTO1111 by hako-mikan.
Please refer to the 'About This Version' for more detailed information.
